Would I ever "force" a girl? No. I wouldn't be with such a girl in the first place. If I'm dating a girl like that and find out later she waits for marriage, I would be polite to break it off. I'm sorry, I only have one life and I don't want to waste it by risking marrying an incompatible partner.

What Girls Said 7

Yes they do. My friend believes this and she was with a guy for over 5 years. Although he did want it and made jokes about not getting any, he respected her wishes and didn't presure her. If this is your wish, the right guy will be more than willing to wait.

Marriage is far from being the best way of finding someone good for you. It's actually the lousiest, in my opinion.

Now, saving yourself for a special person or later in life... that sounds much more reasonable and realistic. To be completely honest, the only reason marriage is useful is because of the social benefits (ie taxes or whatever) and better taking care of children. Otherwise, everything else people

i'm an atheist,i'm not going to get ''married married'',but I'm waiting till I get into a civil union cause I don't want to sleep around with people I don't have a deep enough relationship to be prepared to take a big step with them-such as a legal agreement that shows a serious relationship. it's not really about the marriage itself-it's more a prevention of my own sluttiness lol

... interesting. "Prevention of my own sluttiness", I would not name it exactly that but I do get what you mean. I feel like people are cheapening it, guys with their scores and girls with their purity - yes, both. Neither know the true meaning of deep connection, which by the way is subjective (it can't be taught to others, you can gather advice from people but that's about it).

Make no mistake however, these people are concerned with finding deep connections. We're social beings, we've evolved with co-operation. For different reasons, they chose to behave like they do and can't seem to stop. Guys that disrespect girls do so because they don't believe more, girls that wait for marriage (the religious ones) seem to not understand the risks that accompany marrying a person whom you do not fully know. I assume they dislike the idea of divorce, too.

Anyway, a deep connection WILL form regardless of factors like material and social status, religious/ethical/moral views (if there's no compatibility, there will always be the spark of conflict present) and of course, regardless of marriage.

of course,i understand that. I probably won't end up waiting till marriage,i'm a realistic person,but considering that girls are getting pregnant at my age-waiting till marriage sets the bar high,which will help me make better decisions when it comes to sleeping with someone. as I said,its a ''prevention of my own sluttiness''

i'm saving myself for marriage. I'm 22 now and when I was 19 I was in a relationship with 25 year old guy who didn't try to force himself on me but tried to get me to change my mind. so it is difficult at times but if the person you're with respected you then it wouldn't be a problem.
